We finally have thoughts on the latest #Proton drama from @techlore.tech (Henry) who very much promotes Proton.

Essentially: AI not "inherently bad". Problem was communication/culture. Not concerned. Watching for future issues but not leaving the ecosystem.

Cancel your @proton.me subscriptions NOW.

Switch to:
Tuta for encrypted email
KeePass for password management
IVPN for VPN
Ente Auth for 2FA
Ente Photos for cloud photo backup

Use this helpful guide below to see other Proton alternatives because my above suggestions are not the end-all, be-all.

@proton.me has been on a downward trajectory since their CEO was bigging up JD Vance.

Stuff like this is why I always recommended against people using Proton's entire suite of apps and services.

You never want to put all of your privacy/security eggs into one privacy/security basket.

Diversify.

Free Software Foundation Hosts Free 'Encryptfest' Event on Sunday
The Free Software Foundation's "EncryptFest" today covers both encryption and privacy. The free two-hour event runs from 13:00-15:00 Eastern Daylight Time (17:00-19:00 UTC), and includes: — A discussion on "bulk surveillance, and how encryption protects personal privacy" — A short video from renowned cryptographer Bruce Schneier. — A discussion with Henry Fisher, the founder of Techlore and a digital rights activist — A hands-on workshop on how you can encrypt your email using the FSF's Email Self-Defense guide "as a concrete step to enhance your data privacy" You may join us virtually, or if you are in Boston, Massachusetts, United States (the FSF's home base), you can join us in-person at the Boston Public Library's Copley Square branch. You may also join us in-person at MakeHaven in New Haven, Connecticut, US, and meet our deputy director Sean O'Brien. Whether attending our event online or in-person, please register. It will help us plan ahead and enable us to contact you about other important details before the workshop, like what to expect and what to bring... Bulk surveillance violates our fundamental rights and makes free speech dangerous. Email encryption is an excellent tool you can use to shield yourself from bulk surveillance. Encrypting your email is also a concrete step towards protecting your data from others whose intentions may not be honorable. Read more of this story at Slashdot.
